What have the cast said about the final episode?

Johnny Galecki, who plays Leonard, revealed few details, but hinted that it will be an emotional affair, when he spoke to News.com.au.

‘I just don’t know. The last episode is something that we’ve talked about for many, many years and there’s many variations and options,’ he said.

‘I just hope whatever we’re doing in that last episode it justifies the characters all crying because I know the cast will be.’

Showrunner Steve Holland addressed the prospect of a death in the finale when speaking to The Hollywood Reporter.

‘We’ve dealt with the death of Wolowitz’s mother,’ he said.

‘So, sure, those things are possibilities, but when we get down to the finale — and nothing is set in stone since we haven’t written it yet — but the DNA of the show is a happy, positive, loving show and I don’t think it would feel right to leave this show on a downer note.’

‘Our goal is to make a really strong, really funny season, and then also find a way to end it in a way that seems satisfying,’ he added. ‘It’s nice to actually have the time to do that.’

When the show announced its impending end, they also promised us, ‘an epic creative close.’

"We, along with the cast, writers and crew, are extremely appreciative of the show’s success and aim to deliver a final season, and series finale, that will bring #TheBigBangTheory to an epic creative close.” -Warner Bros. Television, CBS and Chuck Lorre Productions
